lyrics

BREAKING AWAY

i'm hanging on a short line
it's a long time coming and i don't know when
i'm gonna take it back
my hand's in the gutter and room still spins

i heard the angel lie
she said she's got my number anyway
outside the wind keeps howling
and my spirit's growling anyway

what do you say?
the light's still burning
in our eyes, my dear
what do you say?
the right time is coming
and it's oh so clear
for breaking away

you know it, yeah, it's all good
we gotta wait for a minute til we loose this chain
i've done all that i could
now we're both gonna hit it, be alive again

no more sad circles
no more sitting in this rut that we both play
outside the sun is shining
i feel it in my gut, today's the day

what do you say?
the light's still burning
in our eyes, my dear
what do you say?
the right time is coming
and it's oh so clear
for breaking away

we're standing on the face of
a whole new present and the whole new wave
just hoping for a taste of
that northern life, it's everything we crave

to breathe it in and let it go
to be the change that we both know
we need, to act upon it
the boldest move we'll make is just to go

what do you say?
the light's still burning
in our eyes, my dear
what do you say?
the right time is coming
and it's oh so clear
for breaking away
